Please write HSMO’s president, Kathryn Warnick and ask that
this animal abusing fundraising event scheduled for August 22 be
stopped, and that all future events for Longmeadow Rescue Ranch
be animal friendly.

I am writing to you on behalf of United Poultry Concerns
regarding your August 22nd fundraiser for Longmeadow Rescue
Ranch. I respectfully urge you to serve an animal friendly meal
of compassion for all animals, instead of serving dead animals
to raise money for the animals at your Longmeadow Rescue Ranch
facility.

Longmeadow Rescue Ranch’s rescue and rehabilitation of abused
animals is wonderful; but using other abused animals as bait to
fund this enterprise does nothing to arrest the cruelty that
chickens, cows, pigs and other farmed animals are forced to
endure to feed people’s thoughtless eating habits. It ensures
that the cruelty will continue in a never-ending spiral of
miniscule rescue and massive abuse.

It must also be mentioned in this regard that our planet, as
you know, is suffering hugely from the human consumption of
animals and animal products. The suffering of defenseless
animals imprisoned in filthy dark buildings, the deterioration
of our planet to which animal confinement operations are major
contributors, and the myriad and expensive health problems of
people gorging on dead flesh - no humane society should be
facilitating these bad things.

I urge you, in conclusion, to discontinue your inhumane
dinners and adopt a Compassionate Meals Only Policy as an
integral part of your humane work for animals. There are
thousands of humane recipes to choose from on the Internet, in
bookstores, from animal rights organizations, vegetarian
societies, and compassionate chefs. There is no justification,
whatsoever anymore, for claiming a lack of good recipes as an
excuse to be cruel to animals in meal planning. It is incumbent
upon a humane society to set an example by treating all animals
with respect and teaching this respect to others. In today’s
world, this is easy and requires only a little bit of courage
and creativity in order to do it.
